Question

Consider three different datagrams that have the follwing destination IP addresses:

11001000 10010001 01010001 01010101

11100001 00000000 11000011 00111100

11100001 10000000 00010001 01110111

Given a router's forwarding table below, list the link interfaces to which the router forwards the datagrams from above.

Enter the interface by selecting the interface number from the table. For example, enter 6 if the interface is 6 for the datagram and the corresponding destination IP address.

Destination address:
11001000 10010001 01010001 01010101

Link interface:

Destination address:
11100001 00000000 11000011 00111100

Link interface:

Destination address:
11100001 10000000 00010001 01110111

Link interface:

11001000 10010001 01010001 01010101

11100001 00000000 11000011 00111100

11100001 10000000 00010001 01110111

Explanation / Answer

Destination address:
11001000 10010001 01010001 01010101

Link interface: 3 (Since there is no matching prefix)

Destination address:
11100001 00000000 11000011 00111100

Link interface: 2 (Because this matches perfectly)

Destination address:
11100001 10000000 00010001 01110111

Link interface: 1 (Because longest prefix matching rule)
